Choose Invisalign® for Metal-Free Orthodontics

Posted March 9, 2018.

Did you know that you can enjoy the helpful benefits of braces without having to wear metal brackets and wires on your smile? Just about everyone wants straighter teeth, but having to wear bulky metal braces for several months is enough to make many patients avoid orthodontic care altogether. If you are wary of braces, you may be relieved to know that orthodontic aligners can include appliances that are virtually invisible. We offer Invisalign® clear aligners as an option for patients who need orthodontics but want to avoid wearing metal braces.Invisalign is a series of clear, plastic trays that are nearly indecipherable from your teeth, concealing your orthodontic treatment from the public eye. These clear aligners are a popular choice for orthodontic treatment because they are simple, effective and don’t have the same stigma as braces. If traditional braces don’t appeal to you, you find that Invisalign aligners are the minimally invasive treatment that brings about your dream smile.Invisalign provides similar benefits to metal braces, but because it’s not fixed in your smile like metal brackets and wires, it can offer additional perks. For example, there are no food restrictions with Invisalign, and it’s very easy to keep your smile clean because these aligners can be snapped on and off as needed during the day.Please feel free to contact Friendly Smiles Orthodontics at 520-326-1101 today if you would like to ask our dentist, Dr. Ponce, about your candidacy for Invisalign in Tucson, Arizona.
